You're not welcome.

##### I have a feeling it wasn't because of the many inactive forums. I think it is because of the escalation in forum hostility to each other. This "upgrade" (saying that in big quotes) will probably make moderation easier as they only have to deal with 5 forums. On the other hand, the forums will be completely different. r+://536378983 https://forum.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=221258805 |

Roblox has crushed its rational and 'power' communities many times before, and it basically killed it off yesterday.
Today, it officially killed it off.

Called it. I knew the ROBLOX mods were going to delete this forum.
It's been nice RPing with y'all.

Obviously I should be a main character, the great crusaders Reisfeldz and Danonymous who exiled themselves from the land after great destruction has been brought upon it.

RIP. One of the few, and largest, sources for ROBLOX text roleplaying. Now crappy group RPing and game RPing will be free to permanently tarnish the term "RPer" as we know it.

So I guess all the oldgens and experienced are-pee-ers (yes, it's filtered for me) from yesteryear are returning for one final goodbye.
As I've concluded many times before, this place is dead, yet we never faltered. Be it sponsored advertisements from third parties, the removal of tix, addition of R15, chat filter, the server list trash, and now the removal of these subforums, we're all still here and returning.
Really does make me feel a tad bit tingly. Thanks for the nostalgia and backing, lads.

The "community" aspect of Roblox is being destroyed by Roblox themselves, and has been over the last couple of years. It started out slow, now it's just rapid-fire. Terrible updates, one after another, are bringing this site to its knees in terms of quality. |

If the server list update didn't already kill off the 'power user' community, well the forum purging definitely has.
|
|
|
For sure.
I think the server list did as well, but not *nearly* as badly. |

It heavily has hindered the clan world for sure, also the moderation and administration industry on ROBLOX.
|
|
|
To be realistic, not everything ROBLOX has produced is bad for their industry, it's just our community is so divided that we perceive it as bad. |

No, I firmly believe it to be bad. ROBLOX does not listen to the community, it's like they passed the Enabling Act and therefore no one had a say against what they did, or what update they brought along.
|
|
|
Maybe the shifting gaming market had a say on this. What I mean is gaming shifting towards power in the business industry. |

Business or not, the decision lies within the players and the community, yet ROBLOX's refusal of such very much concludes that it is indeed selfish and greedy, ergo not listening to the pleas of the players and their say in these community-changing factors.

"we're not removing tix just so that we can eliminate all free means of receiving virtual currency, it just makes money easier to comprehend"

Lovely, we have people going all directions.
Those who have nowhere to go, those wanting to go to Tim's forum, those to RPN, or those who want to be in Golden's Discord.
Doesn't matter now, does it?
v siggy
One last stand shouldn't hurt, right? |
